On Tuesday, December 7th at 7:00 PM (EST) , We will have a Zoom Lecture titled Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall: What is Scary About It All?
Our Presenter Will Be: Jeff Copper, MBA, PCC, PCAC, CPCC, ACG
About Our Lecture:
Self-awareness is very much a part of executive function and an important factor in managing ADHD. Being self-aware and owning your ADHD is often the difference between those who struggle and those who thrive. Question is what gets in the way of self-awareness? In this webinar, ADHD coach Jeff Copper will review Dr. Russell Barkley's ADHD construct in the context of executive function. He'll talk about the conflicting relationship between emotional self-regulation and self-awareness to look at the problem beneath the problem as a means to create mindfulness of what is going on, what is needed to be more self-aware, and why you might be resisting unbiased introspection. If you have ADHD and understand ADHD but still struggle, this webinar could provide the insight you need to move forward.
Jeff Copper is an ADHD coach, founder of DIG Coaching Practice, and host of Attention Talk Radio and Attention Talk Video. He coaches his clients to help them realize their potential in business and personally. Having learned to manage attention and deal with his own challenges, Jeff developed his anatomy of attention construct to help his clients control their attention and move past barriers. Jeff holds an MBA from University of Tampa, professional designations from ICF, PAAC, and certifications from ADD Coach Academy and Coaches Training Institute. Jeff is a member of ADDA, CHADD, ACO, PAAC, ADD Resources, and ICF.
After the lecture, we will have a brief general support group meeting.
